"Sister's Christmas Catechism" Heads Shubert Holiday Menu

Over at the Shubert Theater in New Haven, there's "Sister's Christmas Catechism: The Mystery of the Magi's Gold" Dec. 3 to 5.

Then the New Haven Ballet presents its "Nutcracker" Dec. 10 to 12 there.

Finally, the always clever boys of the Connecticut Gay Men's Chorus will present its holiday show: "There's Something About Merry" at the Shubert Dec. 18 at 8 p.m. (It also plays at other venues around the state.) The group is celebrating its 25th anniversary.

And while not exactly candy canes and snowflakes, the Shubert will present a live satellite presentation of "Live from New York's 92nd Street Y," featuring Elaine Stritch and Jucamcyn head Jordan Roth Monday, Dec. 6 at 8 p.m. Tickets: $10.
